Craig Kielburger is the founder of WE Charity, formerly Free The Children: the world’s leading youth-driven charity that has inspired an entire generation to stand up and make their voices heard.

The organization provides active citizenship education programs in Canada, the United States and the United Kingdom, reaching 3,500 school groups annually. The organization’s We Schools in Actionprogram fills stadiums with tens of thousands of young leaders who provide more than one million hours of community service every year.

Its Adopt a Village development model currently provides holistic, scalable and sustainable child-focused intervention in seven nations.

Most remarkably, Craig originally started the organization in 1995 at only 12 years of age.
